33. Glock 45

I may be mistaken but I think the "Glock 45" is a small 9mm pistol, not .45 cal, though it may come in .45. But here's the best/worst part.

Pistols are considered close range weapons -- out to about 25-50 yards.

HOWEVER: A 9mm pistol's range varies: the 9mm round maximum travel can exceed a mile, but its effective range for hitting targets is much shorter, typically 25-50 yards for average shooters, extending to 100+ yards for skilled marksmen, with combat effectiveness usually around 50 yards. So -- that bullet can travel out to a mile where it has enough velocity to cause serious damage if it hits a target just right.
